Captivating Winery Concept

Folie à Deux | Sonoma Wine: https://www.folieadeux.com/

According to the Sonoma Winery, Folie à Deux loosely translates, “a passion shared by two.” The two individuals have similar thinking. They agree on madness. So, is “Folie à Deux” in the DSM? There is a Mental Health component with the “Folie,” translation, which Folie means “madness.”

Just looking at the synonyms for “Folie;” they are: mental disorder; mental disturbance; disturbance; psychological disorder; folie. Folie à Deux probably translates,  “shared madness” or “madness for two.” I found “Folie à Deux,” in the DSM III-R. (1987).

Quote from the DSM section. The DSM III-R Code for “Folie à Deux” is 297.30 Induced Psychotic Disorder.

  • A delusion develops (in a second person) in the context of a close relationship with another person or persons, with an already established delusion (the primary case).
  • The delusion in the second person is similar in content to that in the primary case.
  • Immediately before onset of the induced delusion, the second person did not have a psychotic disorder or the prodromal symptoms of schizophrenia.

To read this you will need a key: Ruffley. There is a secondary person (more common among females) that is affected and a primary person that already has the delusion.

At the very beginning of the relationship she subtracts. For example at the very beginning of my relationship with my girlfriend of six years I stopped my business pool cleaning and gardening. My Aunt Vel tells me you only get one. I believe that she meant the girlfriend.

Also called Lasègue–Falret syndrome. The Waiting for Godot play by Samuel Beckett is comparable with the Folie a Deux concept: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waiting_for_Godot

According to Natalie Merchant in the song Tower of Babel; “the house is divided.” This is probably comparable with Lucky’s speech in Waiting for Godot. There is another post just about Waiting for Godot: Sorry Dog.

Insight for Schizo Mental Illnesses

So, I’ve had some time to think about Mental Illness. I must have some insight about it.

Who ever said Schizo-Affective has to differ from Schizophrenia by a mood component. I’m Schizo-Affective and I have to say I don’t get it. I have no mood component.

In recent DSMs the Schizo Mental Illnesses are together in one diagnosis. Staff is stopping the Schizo-Affective Mental Illness Diagnosis. They have to because for Schizo-Affective there is no differentiating mood component.

  • Schizophrenia (FF-SF)
  • Schizo-Affective (FF-SS)

I don’t have a mood component. Staff is wrong.

Taking Complaints has official text, accepted rhetoric in referring to Mental Illness. There is a hereditary table there too. I am sure it is interesting.

Comment: May 13, 2024; There is another less clear writing in an earlier post. I’m trying to understand the Schizo-Affective Mental Illness: https://gevluef.com/2015/07/10/on-mood/

Aunt Vel

My Aunt Vel died a year ago on October 21, 2022. She was cremated and is not a service. Before she died, she felt especially negative about my given name Jeffrey Devitt. She needed to realize that I have a Pi in my name. I explain Pi a little bit in the biography page of my blog; Gevluef.com. She died not knowing that a pretty girl could ease her concerns about me. But no. she knew Pi but she never realized that Pi is one of the solutions to the Devitt family name. Please make sure that Pi is realized as not doing so is a liability.

Aunt Vel’s dates are:

    1. October 21, 2022
    2. July 31, 2023
    3. June 28, 2025 (see comment below)
  • Philosophy of Husserl; See Christmas Card 2022.
  • pi (π) Greek letter; See Pumpkin Pie Christmas Card 2024.
  • Dzi Beads
  • Crusader
  • Good one
  • Moral
  • Essence

Comment: June 28, 2025: Aunt Vel contacted Social Security as a way of complaining about me. Since one of the remedies is to learn Philosophy, I chose three Philosophers for her service. They are:

Edmund Husserl
David Hume
John Locke

My thinking here is Philosophy 123.
